DPRK are still at it.

I've been recently reading posts about North Koreans trying to infiltrate IT companies. 

Today I experienced this myself. 1/n

schmackofant.eth @schmackofantWe just had a 🇰🇵 North Korean scammer/hacker apply as a tech contributor for @vita_dao yesterday. 

The whole thing felt very surreal:1:20 PM ∙ May 24, 2022

Radio nerditry: Shortwave radio is diminishing in importance as other communications methods become cheaper and better. But there's one niche area where it retains unique and enduring advantages: sending secret messages to foreign spies. "Numbers Stations" are still going strong.

Wondering what the longest uptime of a single piece of malware has been. I've heard of networks with stuff like Conficker that got infected when it was going around and is still running today because the systems can't be updated. They just segregate and remove internet access.9:11 PM ∙ May 28, 2022

nao_sec @nao_secInteresting maldoc was submitted from Belarus. It uses Word's external link to load the HTML and then uses the "ms-msdt" scheme to execute PowerShell code.

A Russian, who stole a PS4 from a man’s home in Mariupol is now writing to him via e-mail demanding the account password so he can access games on that PS.

Just let that sink in. https://t.co/bB0KpchOZz

We need a coffee table book on how Ukraine has disproved basically every notion of "game-changing" or "new" trends rendering identified legacy requirements obsolete. If anything, it IMO shows again how badly COIN-obsession + peace dividends have disrupted P2P force capability.11:18 AM ∙ May 29, 2022
